My Boure and Terry shorts are both 1X and fit great. But I also bought a pair of Sugois from our "for sale" topic in an XL, and the stretch quite well and are a decent fit, as well.

I really want a pair of Cannondale -- something with a bit of color on it.

If I can wear the Sugoi XL is that a good sign I can wear the Cannondale XL?
